A new City Library was opened in Palmerston North in 1996. The building was originally constructed in The Square as the C M Ross Co Ltd department store. It was subsequently owned by Milne and Choyce, DIC and Arthur Barnett. It was bought by the City Council from Arthur Barnett and was renovated into the new City Library.
